Amazon Studios has closed a three-picture first-look film deal with Oscar nominee and Emmy winner Eddie Murphy.
Under the deal, Murphy will star in three films for Amazon Studios and develop original film projects for Prime Video and Studios with the potential to star.
This news comes in the wake of Murphy’s Coming 2 America being the most-watched movie on Amazon Prime in its opening weekend over March 5-7, which the streamer has announced, though never provided any viewership figures.
Amazon picked up Coming 2 America from Paramount during the pandemic in October 2020 for 125 million US dollars.
